I have contracts now where I needed 11 new people...in times past, I would have hired them directly. Due to the uncertainty of today's environment, I used a temp service...these 11 folks get their wage, period, from the temp service (no health care, no 401, etc, etc).
As a small business owner, I simply could not take the financial risk to bring these folks on full time with my company, as much as I wanted to. My business is one that is putting as much capital (CASH) aside as we can, because no one knows what is going to happen under the Obama administration.
Good for you- I suggest you write this all out in a letter to our arrogant asshole liberals like Benyamin Cardin, Doddering Babs Mikulski, Slimy Hoyer, etc
Hope WV gets a GOP senator in November!
